Cathar tour in the Languedoc
The Advanced one week tour includes all accommodation, transport, entries and most meals. It includes a dinner at Chateau St Ferriol and two restaurant gourmet dinners.
You will be accompanied by James McDonald visiting castles, fortified towns and other historic sites in the French Languedoc Roussillon. This tour was created on the suggestion of original tour clients. Although it examines particularly the Cathar dimension of the Albigensian crusade the content is accessible and extensive prior knowledge of the Cathars is not required.a
Our groups are a maximum of 7 participants except for larger groups by special arrangement.
The cost for the Advanced Cathar Country experience is 3000 Euros.
The Advanced Cathar Country Tour covers different sites and topics from the Original Cathar Country Tour including the likely origins of Catharism, primary sources and various academic theories and esoteric traditions about the Cathars.
The provisional itinerary includes the following sites.
Albi - picturesque town which gave its name to the Albigensian Crusade. Spectacular Cathedral.
Mazamet - Museum of Catharism with an interesting recreation of Cathar ceremonies.
Lastours (Cabaret) - medieval village + 3 Cathar Châteaux which withstood repeated sieges by the Crusaders.
Minerve - Cathar Château and castrum where between 140 and 180 Cathars were burned alive in 1211.
